Working in Hunts Cross

In Hunts Cross we cover L19, L24 and L26; we also cover Allerton, 1.4 miles away, and Halewood.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Hunts Cross: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Hunts Cross home has a gravity-drained WC on another floor, a macerator in the loft may open up more layout options. If your Hunts Cross loft shower is weak or the waste drains slowly, the fix is often in the pump or the pipe fall rather than the shower itself.

Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Hunts Cross, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A check of the floor joists where a bath or large shower tray will sit
Fitted furniture made to the eaves, so the low space behind the slope becomes storage
A check of your hot-water system and of the pressure and flow you actually get at loft level
An extractor fan ducted through the roof or a gable wall, with the duct insulated through cold spaces

Decisions to make first

Roof window

A roof window over the bath or shower brings daylight and fresh air, but plan the blind for privacy and expect condensation on cold glass.

Gravity or pumped waste

Gravity is silent and maintenance-free. A pumped waste or macerator lets fittings sit away from the stack, provided the house has a WC on gravity drainage elsewhere.

Rules that apply in England

In England, new drainage and a new connection to the soil stack fall under Part H, a new bathroom needs extract of 15 litres per second intermittent or 8 litres per second continuous under Approved Document F, and new circuits are notifiable under Part P. If the work includes an unvented hot-water cylinder, it must be fitted by a G3-qualified installer.

Loft bathrooms in Hunts Cross: questions

What is the price of a loft bathroom in Hunts Cross?

How long does a loft bathroom take?

Is the home survey in Hunts Cross really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover L19 in Hunts Cross?

Yes. We cover all of Hunts Cross, including L19, L24 and L26, and nearby Allerton, Halewood and Speke. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is a bath too heavy for a loft floor?

A standard acrylic bath is usually fine on a loft floor built for a conversion, but a filled bath with someone in it is heavy, and stone-resin or cast-iron baths are much heavier still. We check the joist size, span and direction at the survey, and a heavy bath may need a structural check and strengthening first.
